Securitize has integrated the Stellar network into its tokenization infrastructure, bringing the number of blockchains connected to the company's regulated platform to 17. The asset tokenization firm confirmed the addition in an official post on X on October 28, naming Stellar (XLM) as the newest chain linked to its tokenization platform.

A Multi-Chain Tokenization Platform

Securitize provides regulated infrastructure for issuing and managing tokenized real-world assets, including investment funds and other securities. The company is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a transfer agent and operates Securitize Markets, an alternative trading system for digital asset securities. Those registrations anchor tokenized shares to the same compliance framework used for conventional securities, which is a key reason regulated funds can be represented on public blockchains. Securitize also serves as the transfer agent for the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL), BlackRock's tokenized money market fund that launched in March 2024 — a structure that represents traditional money market holdings as blockchain tokens.

Prior to Stellar's addition, the platform was live across a range of major networks, including Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Avalanche, and Aptos, among others. Securitize has progressively extended support to additional chains as part of a multi-chain approach to issuing and distributing tokenized assets. Each added network gives issuers working with the platform another distribution environment, broadening where tokenized securities can reach investors without changing the underlying regulatory wrapper.

About Stellar

Stellar is a payments-focused blockchain launched in 2014 and supported by the non-profit Stellar Development Foundation. Its native asset, XLM, is used to pay transaction fees and facilitate value transfers on the network, which also supports the issuance of tokens representing assets such as fiat currencies. That design — payment settlement plus built-in token issuance — makes the network a distribution rail oriented toward moving value, complementing the general-purpose chains already in Securitize's lineup.

With the integration, tokenized assets administered through Securitize can be issued or distributed on Stellar in addition to the 16 chains the platform already supported, per the company's October 28 announcement. The post did not specify which tokenized products will be offered on Stellar first; which of the funds Securitize administers, including BUIDL, will use the network remains to be detailed by the company.
